A safety warning to all my TG sisters

I came across this link that lists by year the murders of transgenders and specifics of what occurred. This should be a warning to all of us that we are still targets of hate and to be very careful when meeting anyone.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unlawfully_killed_transgender_people

I also include this link regarding the appeal of Sylvia Boots who was convicted of second degree murder and sentenced to 45 years in prison. This crime could have been prevented if she had just drove away in her car after her confrontation with a rival. However we have seen many convicted of more serious crimes like first degree murder get less time from the courts. The fact that she was transgender might and might not have played a role in the sentencing. We can think that a bias might not exist toward us and any of our actions, however that is not a guarantee for anyone facing the court system today. So try to walk away rather than confront. I know it is not always possible but use common sense when considering your actions.

Take care and please be safe. Ciao.
